(BTW, did you just find these cases by inspection, or were you getting
build warnings?

Even with CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y, I struggle to get build
warnings about section mismatches on inlined functions.  Even building
with -fno-inline doesn't flag them all up (though I don't think this
suppresses all inlining).

If you have a way of tracking these cases down automatically, I'd be
interested to know so that I can apply it elsewhere.)

Cheers
